Every get the feeling that we are lied to by our government all the time? I heard George Bush just admitted that he was lying to the American people on how the war was going in Iraq because he did not want to upset our troops. So when these “leaders” appear on TV looking earnest like they are telling us the truth maybe we should not be so quick to believe them.
I could get into all the specific lies that we were told by our government over the years but I think I will pass. Here is just one recent untruth where we turned against our own ally.
no one laid it on as thick as Clinton. He compared the atrocities in Kosovo to the Holocaust. Kosovo, he said, “is not war in the traditional sense. Imagine what would happen if we and our allies instead decided just to look the other way as these people were massacred on NATO’s doorstep.”
Nine years later, the true nature of our “friends” in Kosovo is becoming clear.
While the U.S. and NATO were pretending the bloodshed was all one-sided – conducted exclusively by Serbs – a new book reveals some of the hideous, provocative human rights abuses being conducted by the so-called “good guys,” the supposed “victims” of genocide.
Investigators for the Hague tribunal for war crimes in the Balkans found a house where living Serb prisoners had their internal organs removed and sold by the ethnic Albanians. The money raised in this grisly trade supported the Kosovo Liberation Army, a Muslim band of terrorists allied with al-Qaida.
Today, the U.S. and much of Europe is supported the creation of an independent, breakaway, autonomous state of Kosovo, presided over by Hashim Thaci, a prominent leader of the KLA.
